Exile? A mad, wicked woman empties the national treasury to escape famine.
Chapter 3 Emptying the Prince's Mansion
Knowing this was no laughing matter, Ji Yunshu's tone became serious.
"I told you, I just had a very vivid dream. Tomorrow morning after dawn, an imperial edict will be issued from the palace to confiscate the property of the entire Zhenbei Prince's Mansion and exile them. Whether you believe it or not, I've already told you what I'm saying, so you'd better be prepared."
Don't let yourself catch your breath and die!
When Ji Yunshu got to this point, Xie Moyao was already starting to believe her.
These past few days, he's felt uneasy, as if something is about to happen, but he hasn't been able to find out exactly what it is. It seems this must be it.
The emperor finally couldn't hold back any longer and decided to take action against the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion.
"Since you know the Prince's mansion will be raided tomorrow, why haven't you left yet? I told you, I'll give you a divorce agreement."
Whatever the woman's reason for reminding him of these things, it did serve as a wake-up call. If she wanted to leave, he wouldn't stop her.
Ji Yunshu shrugged, looking indifferent. "I said, since we're already husband and wife, we're bound together. Besides, the Emperor himself arranged our marriage. You think you can just divorce us like that?"
I reckon the moment I leave the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion, I'll be arrested again and exiled with you all!
Isn't that what's in the original book?
The original owner of this body was such a fool. The next morning, she eagerly waited for the First Prince to force Xie Moyao to write her a divorce agreement, but he didn't say a word!
He was captured and exiled along with everyone from the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion, and ended up dying on the way.
Xie Moyao nodded. Indeed, as Ji Yunshu said, their marriage was ordered by the emperor himself. How could he just agree to a divorce?
The atmosphere in the room became quiet for a moment.
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but wail. She remembered that in the original book, it was written that after the Zhenbei Prince's family was exiled and their property was confiscated, all of the family's assets were confiscated!
Most of it went into the national treasury, while the remaining small portion went into the eldest prince's own pocket!
If only she could take everything from this palace with her. With that thought, her gaze suddenly fell on the dressing table in the room, which was covered with gold and silver jewelry, which must have been hers.
With a thought, Ji Yunshu tried to store the jewelry into her spatial storage.
In the blink of an eye, the gold and silver jewelry on the dressing table disappeared. Ji Yunshu's pupils shrank, her heart jumped, and she subtly withdrew her gaze. Her consciousness entered her mind, and sure enough, she saw some gold and silver jewelry lying quietly on the ground, which was exactly the same as the ones on the dressing table just now.
She can actually store things into her spatial dimension using her mind!
The book states that the next day, someone searched the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion and found evidence of Xie Moyao's treason and collusion with the enemy. The Zhenbei Prince's Mansion was immediately ransacked and he was exiled.
Now that she has a spatial dimension, she can store things in it. If she puts everything in the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion into her spatial dimension tonight, won't they be unable to find any evidence of Xie Moyao's treason tomorrow?!
The more Ji Yunshu thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and she became restless.
He sat up abruptly, turned to look at Xie Moyao lying on the bed, and slowly said:
"Well, I have to go out for a bit, I'll be back in a little while, so please try not to alert them."
Xie Moyao nodded. He was well aware that if the emperor had already decided to take action against the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, any unusual move he made now could lead to the confiscation of property and exile happening even sooner.
When he looked up again, he only saw Ji Yunshu's back as she jumped out of the window, and Xie Moyao's lips twitched slightly.
The woman's movements as she climbed the window were so skillful, and she made no sound at all when she jumped down from the window.
Is this really the arrogant, spoiled, good-for-nothing from the Minister's mansion?
He shook his head, trying to stop thinking about it, and called out towards the door:
"Xie Mu".
As he finished speaking, a dark figure silently appeared in front of him.
In the corridor of the Prince's Mansion
After jumping out of the window, Ji Yunshu dodged the servants' gazes by twisting and turning, and came to a corner where she disappeared into the darkness.
She wasn't familiar with the inner quarters of the Prince's mansion, but fortunately, she was quite skilled, and it didn't take long for her to find her way to the vicinity of the Prince's mansion's storeroom.
The entire warehouse was tightly sealed, with the doors and windows locked. Ji Yunshu smiled slightly, quickly walked to the warehouse window, took out the gold hairpin she had put in earlier from her sleeve, and began to pick the lock.
In her past life, she was a top-notch special agent; something as simple as picking a lock was no challenge for her.
He quietly opened the window, slipped into the warehouse, and then hung the lock he was holding on the window as if it were still locked.
She turned to look at the contents of the storeroom. The storeroom was somewhat dark, but the dozens of boxes in front of her were still clearly visible. Ji Yunshu stepped forward, casually opened two boxes, and looked at the gold and silver treasures piled inside. She couldn't help but whistle.
She knew the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion was wealthy, but she never imagined it was this rich!
This is all the property of the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion, which Xie Moyao's father and brothers obtained with their lives. It absolutely cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of others!
With a thought, she directly stored everything in the entire warehouse into her spatial storage and piled it on the ground outside the villa.
After leaving the storeroom, he locked the lock he had just opened back in its original place, and under the cover of moonlight, he began to wander through all the residences of the Prince of Zhenbei.
She was unfamiliar with the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion and didn't know what these courtyards were for. Since it was still early, she decided to search each room one by one. She moved very quickly, and whenever she saw anything valuable in a room, she put it all into her spatial storage!
Besides all the gold and silver treasures in the palace, she also went to the kitchen. Although the palace was hosting a banquet today, it was the height of summer, and there wasn't much food or meat left in the kitchen. She picked out some fresh food and meat and put it into her space. When she left, she also took some pots and pans.
Besides these, she also collected a lot of clothes, quilts, and fabrics. Finally, when she passed by the Zhenbei Prince's Ancestral Hall, she also collected all the memorial tablets of the worshippers in the ancestral hall and everything else in the ancestral hall into her space.
Wee hours
After a noisy night, the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion was eerily quiet.
Xie Moyao lay half-reclined on the bed, his eyes occasionally falling on Ji Yunshu, his gaze full of inquiry. After the woman left the room last night, he thought she would take advantage of the dark night to leave the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, but he did not expect that she would actually come back.
Moreover, after returning, he fell asleep on the table.
This made him wonder if what Ji Yunshu said last night was true or just a joke.
Ji Yunshu lay on the table, seemingly dozing off, but in reality, she was studying the supplies in her spatial storage.
To her surprise, after a night, the mall entrance, which was gray yesterday, had become colorful today.
The mechanical voice in my mind came again.
Congratulations on unlocking some supplies! You can check the shop for details.
Ji Yunshu was overjoyed and was about to go into the mall to see what was going on inside. Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking at the door.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, something terrible has happened! The commander of the Imperial Guards has surrounded the palace with his men!"
